Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns 🙋‍♂️

  1. ⚡ What drill bit size is required for installation?

    • These sockets typically require a 6mm to 6.5mm mounting hole for the threaded nose to pass through the panel.

  2. 🔊 Can this be used for mono applications?

    • Yes. For a mono signal, you would simply connect your signal to the Tip terminal and leave the Ring terminal unconnected or shorted to ground, depending on your circuit.

  3. 💪 Is the nut easy to strip?

    • Our knurled metal nuts are designed for durability; however, we recommend finger-tightening followed by a light turn with a wrench or pliers to avoid over-torquing.
